16 months ago bhr started running with doc approval at 11 months, four to five miles 3 to 4 times per week. Somedays no pain, somedays extreme pain on the operated side of the buttocks, have had recent x-rays and a 3 phase bone scan everything is normal. I have tried all types of surfaces; shorter runs, longer runs, all seem to no avail, the pain is at the end of some runs and sometimes at the start and I do mean pain, extreme. When it comes its almost immediate, stop and walk/limp home. Anybody out there experiencing this type of scenario?
whats your warm up routine? cory foulk has a good writup on that. he argues that you cannot skip it. its a must to get the joint lubricated and 'floating'. could also be tendon/rubbing issues?
I'm t minus 6 weeks until surgery. My last marathon was 2002... if all goes well, I'll be going for a jog 8/16/2011. Keep posting on your progress good or bad.
Hi, I just posted a link to Dr Foulk's article on the 'getting back into running' thread, havent had a chance to try it yet - I'm at 16 weeks, Regards, G.
Thank you very much, just read it, I will try anything at this point, I know that my 30 second warm up might be a bit quick but as you know it seems like an hour when you want to get started with your run.
thanks again

to all,
I went to Dr Gross last week to get the advice of a Doctor that is one of the countrys best, after a MRI and X-Rays he said that my abductor tendon was inflammed, stretch and strengthening was my avenue to
hopefully getting better. 2 years post BHR. Any out there have the same ?

Yes count me in on this when it flairs up I have to back off the running and work on the abductors, bikeing won't flair them but can't ride when they are acting up. Running about 30 to 50 miles a week but it cuts that in half. Let me know stano what works for you.

Tommey,
What type of exercises work best for the abductor tendon, seems like I am going in circles. Any advise?
stano
I started out doing Kettlebell squats that worked really well then ran in to knee trouble so squating got tough so now I do the hip abduction machine at the gym. Right after surgery the PT had me squeeze a pillow between my knees as well as side lying leg raises still do the leg raises. I find PT tough and boring

Hi all, I went through my 6 years about a month ago. Previous running, 2-3 years back didnt seem to affect hip once I'd gotten fit (but did have pain after c. 20 mins for a spell).
However, recently the hip pain after a mile or two miles or sometimes hardly at all has been quite a nuisance.
Can anyone refer me to recent articles or posts on this?
I figure I just need to lose 7lbs, strengthen a bit etc. So I will start on that tomorrow...
